It dries you, it doesn't just cover you — the loops lift water off the skin, so you can go from the shower to the kettle without reaching for a towel first

It gets softer with every wash — cotton loops open up over time — this is one of the few fabrics that is better in its second year than its first

It handles a hot wash — the one fabric here you can wash at 60°C when someone in the house has been ill

What towelling gives you, <em class="trait">and what it costs</em> — in a dressing gown

A word from us

What towelling gives you, and what it costs — in a dressing gown

Start with what the garment is for: a dressing gown is for the hours either side of sleep: the kettle at seven, the sofa at ten. Towelling is woven with raised loops on both faces, and those loops are what hold water. It is the same construction as a bath towel, which is why a towelling robe dries you instead of sitting damp on top of you. That is the difference between a towelling robe and one that only looks the part.

In use it shows up as one thing: it dries you, it doesn't just cover you — the loops lift water off the skin, so you can go from the shower to the kettle without reaching for a towel first. For more on this, browse our green dressing gown ladies.

Shoulder, sleeve and belt: the three that matter — in towelling

Before you choose

Shoulder, sleeve and belt: the three that matter — in towelling

Women ask about the cut through the shoulder and where the belt sits at the waist before anything else, and they are right to — it is where most robes fall down. That is also what our green dressing gown range is for.

  • It gets softer with every wash — cotton loops open up over time — this is one of the few fabrics that is better in its second year than its first
  • It handles a hot wash — the one fabric here you can wash at 60°C when someone in the house has been ill
  • Cut to the ankle — cut to the ankle, it keeps the draught off the legs when you are standing at the kettle at seven in the morning, and it reads as a proper robe rather than a cover-up.
  • Belt loops that hold the belt — a small thing, and the first thing missing on a cheap robe

Good to know

How to wash towelling without ruining it — when it hangs behind a bathroom door — in a flat with no tumble dryer

Towelling is heavy once wet, and it takes its time on the line. If you want something that dries in an hour, a waffle or a microfibre robe is the honest answer. Machine wash at 40°C, tumble dry low. Treated that way, a towelling dressing gown lasts five winters rather than one — the difference between a robe you keep on the back of the door and one you replace every autumn. In the same vein, have a look at our towelling dressing gown womens.

Frequently asked questions

What size should I take?

Take your usual UK size. It is cut loose so it goes over nightwear without pulling, and the belt takes up the rest. If you are between sizes, or if you want to wear it over a jumper, take the larger one. Full measurements are in the size guide above the buy button.

What is it actually made of?

Cotton towelling. In the hand it is thick, absorbent and reassuringly heavy. In use that means it is it dries you, it doesn't just cover you.

How do I wash it?

Machine wash at 40°C, tumble dry low. No fabric conditioner — it coats the loops and they stop absorbing.

Will it be too warm indoors?

Towelling is a warm fabric in its own right, and it is the one that keeps working when the bathroom is cold.
